EXCERPT

“In the nostalgist’s view, Austin used to be cheap, friendly, and populated by gentle, dope-smoking scholars and geniuses. They’ll promise you that if you turned up on any porch in the West Campus area near the University of Texas in the 1970s, you’d be sure of a bed, breakfast, maybe a whole new life and all for free.”
